There's always something to hide
There's always someone to lead on with you
And obligated to rewind
Evidently proved that I don't need you

She said oh please, you're obsessed!
I said she looked overdressed
She deffo didn't like that, no

She said, I'm feeling like it's put on when you say you don't need me
And you want nothing of me

But, babe, you know I've tried and failed
But you just don't know how it feels
To lose something you never had and never will

There's always some kid too snide
They took my mother at thirteen
And pacifically I
Evidently proved that I don't need you or no one

She said it's you I detest!
I said she looked under-slept
She deffo didn't like that, no

You see I'm feeling like it's put on when you say you don't need me
And you want nothing of me

Oh but, babe, you know I've tried and failed
But, you just don't know how it feels
To lose something you never had and never will

But, babe, you know I've tried and failed
But, you just don't know how it feels
To lose something you never had and never will

I'm a pacifier
